Hey Everyone Just got back from the new Neuro he was very nice and easy to talk to and understand. He felt it is Transverse Mylities not Ms that my brain is clear from MS lesions. He feels it may have come from a virus and I will heal without steroids it will just take time he said he will do a follow up MRI in 6 months to check but unless I have new symptoms he feels I should be just fine. Now I just Have to get my thyroid checked out by the doc on the 27th. What a relief. He said the doc that told me all those horrible things was an ass and that you never tell a patient that stuff over the phone or until you have medical proof not just thoughts. But at least this is over and I can focus on getting back to work my boss really needs me his poor wife was diagnosised Fri with breast cancer and she has two young boys. Please everyone say a prayer for Jeannie that she comes out of this OK. Thanks again for all your prayers and support when I needed you all are the best. Hugs Mare

Mare,
Glad that the new neuro is nice and also thinks the other one was an ass!
Welcome to TM... a weird neuro disorder we can all do without! As always, anytime you have questions let me know, ok?
Hugs to you!
Prayers to you and your boss's wife!

Yes my loving husband is very relieved, Frankie is a teen I don't think it even fazed him since I pretty much kept it to myself except for talking to all my wonderful friends here. I can't tell you how much everyone helped me to keep it together here at home I could not have done it without each and everyone of you God truly blessed me with you ladies. Hugs Mare
